kuiserver and plasma job display

S. Reich has worked on turning it into a store-and-forward multiplexing system

* multiple visualizations can be connected
* if plasma crashes, jobs are still there when it comes back
* provides own UI if plasma not available or turned off
* apps won't block and plasma and vice versa (just on kuiserver ;)

work ready for review and merge

autoupdating / checking of plasmoids

Assigned to: AS / RS(?)

JP: GHNS2 provides a way to autoupdate packages

JP: in 4.4. dialog will have an update tab

AS: request non-dialog, direct API access

JP: still some decision work needed in GHNS community, will keep us informed

signing/trust

Signing of plasmoids/engines/services needed

Tie that level of trust into capabilities offered the plasmoid

Needs more definition and research, see document in design/

PIM / Akonadi

Lion Mail probably ready for "simpler" cases for 4.4, but pending:

* features in akonadi (searching, sorting)
* data actually being in akonadi (4.4 material for the PIM team)

interaction with contacts (akonadi contacts support is in the data engine), contacts applet? What role does telepathy play here?

Desktop settings

Assigned: Davide Bettio

Icon view for wallpapers / themes

Separate out plasma global settings from it

Explore possible ways to remove some of the wallpaper plugin settings dupes?

Plasma D-Bus access

IC is working on finalizing the design, will implement for 4.4

Multimedia components

AD: finishing the basic api

AD: now we have a media browser, a working playlist applet, some useful dataengines and a weird-not-working playback control applet
